The New Berlin: Memory, Politics, Place

The New Berlin: Memory, Politics, Place

?he New Berlin is a notable contribution to human geography and to the interdisciplinary literature on social memory and place making. Till? methods and scholarship have provided the conceptual groundwork for the exploration and development of place making, social memory, and spatial haunting through the particular practices and politics of the new Berlin. Her readable style is marked by a narrative economy in which every word and sentence serves the larger purposes of the book. I recommend this book to anyone-student, scholar, or practitioner-who is interested in the social dynamics of memory formation and place making.
